The Ballad of Genesis and Lady Jaye Trailer

Genesis Breyer P-Orridge has experienced a long and interesting career. Born Neil Andrew Megson in 1950, P-Orridge rose to fame in the controversial performance work in COUM Transmissions, which evolved into the industrial band Throbbing Gristle in 1975. P-Orridge is more widely known for his other band, Psychic TV, which formed in 1982.

Perhaps the thing that P-Orridge was most famous for was his second marriage to fello performance artist Lady Jaye. Lady Jaye was born Jacqueline Mary Breyer in 1969. The couple met in 1993 and instantly fell in love. So deep was their devotion to each other that they decided to turn it into an art project and use cosmetic surgery to make themselves look identical.

Their art project continued for the next fifteen years, until Lady Jaye's tragic death in 2007. Marie Losier directs and gives us a look into the life of P-Orridge and his art project with his wife.
